    I screenshotted the outpost item history and the scammer alt/friend who currently owns it, as backup proof.
    ExoticFishy it might help if you file a formal report yourself for the offense as you were the victim.
    Feel free to use my proof if needed.

    I have nothing to do with this, I bought the hat completely legitimately (from the scammer I guess)
    I am willing to return the hat for half its value but I paid for it, so I can't just give it back for free.

    My account is not an alternate to anyone's, I have a $2000 steam library, I don't wish to lose this account so yeah.

    I will add to this. He added me from my outpost link that I am selling my Miami Nights Killer Exclusive. First he said $750 then he said $1000 next was $1300 then he said the next day he sold the unusual and could pay $1450. A little suspicious how he went from $750 to $1450 so quick. So I asked if we could do it in earbuds because I was afraid of a charge back even if we used a middle man because he has no source rep forum. He said that it's too much of a hassle and would rather do it with money but I had to give it to him first. So I ended the trade because I saw the reports on him scamming the rubber glove and all the proof.
